“The Legend of Boxing in the Dark Ages”
Cestvs enters his first match at the slave gladiator training school. Though he's bewildered to discover that his opponent is his best friend, he wins the match, and his opponent is killed on the spot. According to his instructor Zafar, losers have no future. "Every time you win, your opponent will die. You're practically a murderer!" With all his sorrow and rage clenched in his fists, Cestvs survives, as one after another powerful opponents stand in his way, as well as the shadow of Nero, fifth emperor of the Roman Empire. With no other way to secure his freedom, can Cestvs seize his future?!
Cestvs defeats Felix with a miraculous single blow. The defeated Felix tells Cestvs to race up to the top before departing. In Sicily, where the main event will be held, Cestvs is reunited with Emden, who is excited for their rematch, as well as Ruska. Ruska insists that it's impossible for Cestvs to win and that he should withdraw from the tournament, but Cestvs refuses. "These fists are already soaked in blood. All I can do is move forward!" Each fighter carries his own feelings and desires in his heart as the Emperor Nero's tournament begins...
